There was an episode in 2010 wherein Leon Combs was interviewed. That's the only episode I could find.

I agree Swoosh! I think that the facade will be huge! I expect this station will be Themed to the hilt!
I kind of think that's why they have started so early.

I was at the park again today and saw a lot of progress done.  I did not get any good pictures due to the fact I can not see through trees or get a good angle. Was not able to ride the train but can happily say the the drop is being worked on and a good amount has been built since yesterday.  The drop portion is about the height of the trees and still needs a little way to go to connect with the lift and slight turn.

1 word describes how steep the drop is.     .  "Real"   :) :)

It is hard to tell right now because all of the wood is the same level.  Kinda how they built the lift.  I say give it a week and we will see this thing take shape. May be even done with the drop at the rate they are going.

Here are some recent shots from Chadster on TPR that show a lot of the station area really well: http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1185700#p1185700

Doesn't  appear that much visible construction has occurred since our last update.

Im going this weekend but I doubt I will be getting pics of the progress that would be of any importance. I think since opening weekend they have done a good job of "hiding" the progress. Sigh.
